This week, the children learnt all about our senses and which parts of our body are associated with which sense. For this, the children conducted experiments in a carousel style activity.
Smell The children used smelling pots and had to try and guess what was in each pot. Some guessed lavender and some guessed cinnamon.
Taste The children played a game in which they were given some fruit and they had to use their sense of taste to decide what the food was. They particularly enjoyed this one!
Touch The children were given a bag with different objects in and had to guess what the objects were according to their properties.
Sight The children played ‘Kim’s Game’ with Mrs Ruffell. This involved looking at objects in a tray and memorising them. Mrs Ruffell then took an object out of the tray and the children had to identify which object was missing. They were very good at this one!
Sound One child came into the middle of the circle and had to shout, “Stop!” The child who was holding a puppet had to say something and the child in the middle had to use their sense of sound to identify the child.
